My condition is that i have openafs folder in sidebar leopard, now i  
dont' have tried to work with afs mounted but without network, so i  
don't now if there are problem. Anyway there is no problem if the user  
can choice to autosartup afs or not. This is can be don't using new  
osx launch methods, afscommander can be modified to make this.
All this are only consideration:-)
